Sorta off topic, but just did this in an auto E82 (really don't like the kickdown even if it's an auto).
Pedal was more annoying to take apart because it's held together by clips, but it was significantly easier to remove from the car. Held in by a bolt and then it comes out:

Just FYI, the auto and manual pedals are scaled differently. The manual pedal maxes out at 4.15v. The auto pedal hits 4.15v right at the kickdown switch, and then gets to 4.55v as you press the kickdown. The dme uses that higher voltage to determine whether or not it should put itself into kickdown mode.

So how does the DME know which pedal is installed? If you converted a SMG to 6MT does it except 4.15v or 4.55v for WOT?
In a manual car I believe the can flag is still set if you happen to have an auto pedal, but nothing else really happens since nothing needs to respond to the kickdown status.
